Tsokye Dorje is an example of enlightenment, representing the fusion of profound knowledge with deft methods. He is praised for his ability to overcome barriers, lead practitioners to emancipation, and spread esoteric truths. He is frequently seen in his iconography sitting among lotuses or waves, clutching a skull cup and vajra, which stand for indestructibility and the ultimate aspect of reality.
